7,310,301 | mommit | Thank you for the PSA, but I am fully aware of it's presence in the washer and I'm ignoring it's existence hoping it dissapears from the face of the earth. Wishful thinking lol |
7,310,302 | mommit | Thanks! I just moved the laundry |
7,310,303 | mommit | I use sudshare for our laundry, but I have this quilt on my closet floor for like 2.5 weeks now, thinking i would just throw it in the wash at some point because I don't want to pay the extra $8 to wash the quilt. |
7,310,304 | mommit | Where were you 24hrs ago? |
7,310,305 | mommit | I like to procrastinate all of my laundry until we are in dire need, then as the loads are done in the dryer I pile them up and up until I have Mount Everest of clean laundry. Then I whine and whine in my head about doing it and wait until there are no other favourable chores to do and THEN I do it. I'm currently at... |
7,310,306 | mommit | I don't have this all figured out, don't get me wrong, I currently have 2 baskets full to fold from Saturday. But seriously, purge clothes. It can't get nearly as out of hand if you don't have as many clothes to even get dirty. I keep it to 8-9 shirts per kid in both long and short sleeves, that many pants and shorts ... |
7,310,307 | mommit | lol you painted my entire setup |
7,310,308 | mommit | I washed, dried and folded 3 loads of laundry yesterday. I was feeling rather accomplished and full of myself as I finished folding the last load around 10:00PM. . . Then my 15 year old son handed me a disgusting bag of basketball clothes and said “Can you have these done before I leave for school tomorrow??” He leave... |
7,310,309 | mommit | I hate this because its laundry day and you reminded me. So many baby socks to find |
7,310,310 | mommit | I literally have a load of laundry waiting to go to the dryer.. which is still full from two days ago. 🫤 |
7,310,311 | mommit | 1 folded to be put away (all week), 2 full baskets not folded, 1 on the dryer... and maybe 3 more loads to do. I'm drowning in laundry. Constantly. Teenager. Toddler. Infant. |
7,310,312 | mommit | Actually it’s Monday morning and I have a wet load needing to be moved to the dryer and a new load waiting to be put in the washer. Plus a fry load on my bed and two more on the couch. But instead I’m on Reddit until I have to go to work later. |
7,310,313 | mommit | 1) I feel personally attacked. 2) Thank you for the reminder, kind stranger! |
7,310,314 | mommit | Ive washed the same load in my washer 5x now, and it’s still in my washer from yesterdays wash…wash #6 coming on up |
7,310,315 | mommit | Currently have a massive load of my laundry in the dryer. At least it made it to the dryer. My toddler likes to help load it up. Now I’ve got to throw partners laundry in the wash and see if I can fold my clothes in under a week this time. Toddlers laundry is complete! In a few days it’s time to change sheets and towel... |
7,310,316 | mommit | Thanks for the reminder to move the wet laundry from 2 days ago to the dryer |
7,310,317 | mommit | I purposely have like 5 laundry bins for *clean* clothes only. They're all currently full of a variety of children's clothes. Clean, unfolded - but kinda sorted! |
7,310,318 | mommit | I think we would be friends IRL |
7,310,319 | mommit | This would work but my side kicks Thing 1 and 2 will grab everything piece by piece and throw it on the ground while I attempt to fold it. |
7,310,320 | mommit | and if you’re me, the clean clothes fall off where ever you put them and mesh in with the dirty laundry and you get to start the whole thing over again from square one! |
7,310,321 | mommit | Please tell my husband that it’s not just me! |
7,310,322 | mommit | This truck is why there are three laundry baskets of clean clothes in my bedroom that need to be folded and put away |
7,310,323 | mommit | I’m not above sleeping on my clean laundry. |
7,310,324 | mommit | Laundry armchair, cross contamination, dressing out of baskets...now I'm convinced we live in a simulation and we're all just the same person. |
7,310,325 | mommit | I keep an armchair in the bedroom just for this purpose! |
7,310,326 | mommit | I do this literally every day |
7,310,327 | mommit | It me. |
7,310,328 | mommit | There are literally dozens of us |
7,310,329 | mommit | Are you me? |
7,310,330 | mommit | So real |
7,310,331 | mommit | I just put it on my husbands side and he does it haha |
7,310,332 | mommit | This was me. I dumped it on my bed and then the kids decided throwing laundry was fun. Now I have a laundry mountain (all clean and dried) but not dealt with Also, now I have the same song stuck in my head. It's so good lol |
7,310,333 | mommit | I have never felt so seen |
7,310,334 | mommit | Even before kids, I never saw laundry on my bed and thought 'Oh I should fold that.' I just schooched it over and went to bed. |
7,310,335 | mommit | My son (2) pretends he's a bulldozer and pushes it off onto the floor its our new game haha |
7,310,336 | mommit | I feel this in my soul lol I hope it all worked out for you by bed time! |
7,310,337 | mommit | I think the ven of my dryer is clogged and thst makes things take much longer in the dryer. I can't figure out how to unattach the tube thing for the vent or move the dryer by myself. I want to call a handyman but my husband said he'd do it. It's been over a year. He just doesn't get it. And I had towels in the dryer... |
7,310,338 | mommit | We have a rather small washer and a king size bed. When I decide to wash bedding it’s a whole day affair. If I don’t put the first load in the wash *as soon as my eyes pop open* I might as well reschedule the whole endeavor. First load sheets, pillow cases, and small blankets (we sleep with a couple small throw blanket... |
7,310,339 | mommit | AND distributed it?? |
7,310,340 | mommit | My mum is staying with us for the last month to help out with our newborn and second kid. This is the first time I have ever been caught up on laundry. She does a load every day, folds it, and brings it upstairs to be put away. It's the most amazing feeling not to be drowning in laundry for once! |
7,310,341 | mommit | I got that x4, plus the load in the dryer, yesterday’s wet load in the washer, and 2 hampers waiting to be folded. I am winning this game! |
7,310,342 | mommit | How about the dirty load in the washer, sprinkled with detergent, that you just never hit “start” on? |
7,310,343 | mommit | I feel seen |
7,310,344 | mommit | My to-do list currently has different laundry tasks on 8 separate lines. |
7,310,345 | mommit | Your mum is MIL goals. That's brilliant |
7,310,346 | mommit | My favorite way is to convince myself that the clothes aren’t dry enough so I just run them through the dryer again. The sound of the dryer is a sound I’ve associated with “I’m being productive!” So I just keep it running. Bonus: if husband ask me to do something, I can’t because “I’m doing laundry all day” even tho... |
7,310,347 | mommit | This is also my go-to move. Set a timer- I’m so smart! Timer goes off- oh, I’ll get it once this show is over (promptly forgets) |
7,310,348 | mommit | Mine still is as I Reddit the morning while dad brings little to school. Sipping coffee too. Priorities for now. Lol |
7,310,349 | mommit | They get their own clothes and everyone else’s clothes dirty!! I used to wear pants and shirts a few times before washing them. Now I need to change halfway through the day because of all the spit up/sticky hands/sweat. |
7,310,350 | mommit | Literally will make me want to cry lol |
7,310,351 | mommit | Teach me your ways!! |
7,310,352 | mommit | We are a family of five. I literally just folded and put away four loads on Friday, got stomach flu after ballet Saturday and now there’s 2-3 loads on the bathroom floor. Fully does not help that my six year old wants to do a look change whenever she is the least bit dirty! |
7,310,353 | mommit | A perfectly valid reason to put off laundry |
7,310,354 | mommit | Seven baskets!!! You deserve a break! |
7,310,355 | mommit | Don't get ahead of yourself. Fuck around and clean all the clothes at once you're going to realize there's not enough room to put everything away. |
7,310,356 | mommit | Get well soon! That laundry can wait! |
7,310,357 | mommit | 8 loads!! Is that a record?? You deserve a break! |
7,310,358 | mommit | oommmgggg. What did you say/do?? |
7,310,359 | mommit | I'm sorry OP I'm a nerd but the sun will consume Earth when it becomes a red giant in about 5-6 billion years (estimates vary), not a few million. Hope that helps. |
7,310,360 | mommit | My side kick likes to open drawers and take clothes to the dog to play with lol |
7,310,361 | mommit | Ahhhh! We have cross contamination of the clean and dirty laundry sectors!!! |
7,310,362 | mommit | THIS! But also, I'm glad someone is telling me it's not just me... I'm not sure if I have fully folded and put away a load of laundry from start to finish in one day... Maybe ever... |
7,310,363 | mommit | ...four ... And I actually folded 4 on Saturday, but we were so far behind on laundry that I'm back to having four clean baskets unfolded. And we have two new cats, and discovered that at least one likes to grab fabric (socks, towels, whatever) and *drag them into the litter box*. Those socks were clean, they're now... |
7,310,364 | mommit | A year!! Call that handyman! And I’m glad I reminded you but so sorry it was too late lol, if it makes you feel better all our sheets and blankets weren’t done until 10:30ish last night |
7,310,365 | mommit | Yesss. I can only hope I'm as amazing as her if I ever become a grandma/MIL. She said she needed something "relaxing" to do before her shift started lol. (I provided coffee, dinner & dessert of course). |
7,310,366 | mommit | Moms are amazing aren't they?! I love how she never judges me & reminds me that I'm doing the important stuff: raising my kids. Ever since I've become a mom, each birthday card consists of a message stating how proud she is of everything I do & how much I accomplish. I'm so glad you're getting that support |
7,310,367 | mommit | This is me today. Plus the basket that got folded but never put away |
7,310,368 | mommit | Yeah, I actually always add "sort laundry" and "fold laundry", but I was too afraid to admit that I have so many in comment I'm glad I'm not alone! |
7,310,369 | mommit | Omg, I re-dry clothes a lot. |
7,310,370 | mommit | I know that's right! Haha |
7,310,371 | mommit | Wish I could, was absolutely shocked myself |
7,310,372 | mommit | Thank you |
7,310,373 | mommit | Lol sadly no… 2 kids, mechanic husband, 3 dogs. I’m pretty sure the record is like 11 loads… idk I do a lot of laundry |
7,310,374 | mommit | I washed them and put them in the dryer. He got them out of the dryer in the morning. He’s a good kid. |
7,310,375 | mommit | I love it when nerds correct me! I was too lazy to look up the (more precise) estimated dates. But now I won’t forget ;) |
7,310,376 | mommit | I’m glad you did this so I don’t have to |
7,310,377 | mommit | Me having a chuckle as my 9-day-old lays in my lap to sleep. As soon as I lay her down she wakes and fusses... I suppose I'm supposed to clean when she cleans and cook when she cooks. |
7,310,378 | mommit | Why can’t your husband alternate days with you and every other day you get to be the one who gets yoga and a shower while he has the baby? |
7,310,379 | mommit | Ahhh yes child free friends. I was at a Memorial Day get together with my husbands siblings/cousins and their friends and we just quietly laughed to ourselves when they all had a discussion about how much harder puppies are than babies |
7,310,380 | mommit | My MOM said, why are you constantly rocking him? babies just go to sleep when they're tired. If.only! |
7,310,381 | mommit | Oh that sweet summer child finally at six months I’m starting to get some solid crib naps so I can get workout in. But at three months there was no way. |
7,310,382 | mommit | Baby/mommy yoga. You do yoga with him camped out on your mat. There are moves that you also incorporate him into. |
7,310,383 | mommit | I am 7 weeks postpartum and a “friend” recently sent a DM trying to sell me beach body. I have 2 under 2 so I kindly said that I am in survival mode and literally have ZERO time for myself right now. She posted a story about how lazy people will always find excuses and you can always find time shortly afterwards lololo... |
7,310,384 | mommit | Just wear the baby while you do yoga. Duh. . I agree with another commenter though, why can't hubby take baby for you to do some yoga if you really want to? |
7,310,385 | mommit | Do yoga when baby does yoga! Sleep when baby sleeps! |
7,310,386 | mommit | Others have suggested this in other posts and got crazy positive replies so I'll put it here just incase you haven't tried it already. Get a heating pad or blanket and warm up the area you want to transfer them to then remove the blanket before laying baby down. |
7,310,387 | mommit | You gotta stop telling your childless friends your parenting problems..they will never comprehend. And you can’t blame her..she wont get it til she has her own kids and maybe even then she’ll have a super chill kid that will sleep the moments they lay their head down.. |
7,310,388 | mommit | Don’t take advice from people that don’t have kids. They have zero idea what they are talking about and will never understand until they are going through it themselves |
7,310,389 | mommit | Non contact naps improved for me around 4 months… for a bout 2 weeks before the 4 months sleep regression |
7,310,390 | mommit | Why is your husband doing yoga every morning instead of trading off with you? Unless I’m reading that wrong? There isn’t much reason why he can’t watch baby while you do some yoga and have a shower. |
7,310,391 | mommit | I feel the only advice for new parents should be, "don't expect to do anything alone for the first year." Say no to exercise. Dishes. Non-childcare responsibilities. Sleep when you can. Enjoy every second you can with your little squishy. But... Maybe baby wearing yoga would work for you? (I couldn't put my son down... |
7,310,392 | mommit | Theres a really cute baby and bub yoga video on youtube, its about 10 minutes!! I havent been able to sit through it in one sitting with my 8 month old LOL Hope you find time for self care, OP. It really is hard. |
7,310,393 | mommit | I had to start physical therapy with my 10mo (to strengthen her core and hands as she was asymmetrically army crawling) so now I guess I get to exercise 5 times a day. Even if it's a few minutes, I always end up sweaty. It counts, right?? |
7,310,394 | mommit | We get warm fuzzy sheets, flannels, etc and those def help with transferring our 9mo to the crib or pack’n’play! Crisper sheets stay cool and it kinda shocks them awake when they’ve been all cozy warm on you. Just a tip we found that works for us! Plus keeping a noise machine or fan on low *at all times* to block out s... |
7,310,395 | mommit | Let me fix that for her “Can you make a bottle so I can watch her for an hour while you go do yoga & shower?” |
7,310,396 | mommit | My mom was trying to convince me I had time to do a daily workout video when my LO was four months old. I was like no, I don’t have 30 minutes in a row! |
7,310,397 | mommit | I was telling a coworker how I wanted to go see the new Jurassic park movie but will probably wait u til it’s on streaming, or have my in laws watch my son so we can have a date night (my son is 17 months). My coworker suggested we take our son to the movies. I thought this was a joke, but he was 100% serious. What’s w... |
7,310,398 | mommit | Yep sounds about right! It does get easier I promise! I barely had time to read when my little one was much smaller. I like high fantasy novels and it’s hard to pick up and set down frequently so I just didn’t read until around 4-6 months. When he was around 8 months I would read every night and now at 2 years old I’... |
7,310,399 | mommit | Maybe one day was my mantra. God. It still is after 7 years and two more kids later. My first born was an awful sleeper. I was in a fog for at least two years, to the point where I resent her. It sounds awful I know but sleep deprivation affected all aspects of my life. My youngest is 3 now and I feel everything hinges... |
7,310,400 | mommit | My oldest user to love contact naps. He did it for so long that eventually I felt like you, just wanting to be able to transfer him so I could be hands-free. When he stopped I was relieved for a while and then started to miss it. When I had my second son I was excited to get some more snuggle naps but he was never in... |
